Why us

Why Choose Our Electricians in Northwich

Brine pumping collapsed the ground under Northwich through the nineteenth century. Buildings leaned, sank and in 1880 the Weaver poured into a hole big enough to make a lake. Some houses were deliberately built on steel girders so they could be jacked level again as the ground moved. Timber framed property in the centre that survived because it could flex, and a lot of later building that has had movement at some point in its life.

We quote before we start, in writingAn itemised price with the remedial work priced separately, so nothing lands on the invoice that was not agreed.
The same electrician start to finishYou are not handed between a salesman, a subcontractor and an office.
Certificates issued within 24 hoursNot a fortnight later when the agent is chasing and the tenancy is waiting.
We know what the council asks forCheshire West and Chester Council wants the paperwork a particular way, and getting it wrong means doing it twice.
Tidy on site, boards back onDust sheets down, mess taken with us, and the property left as we found it.

What we tend to find: Cable runs and joints disturbed by movement, cracked conduit, and older installations that have been re-levelled around at some point.

Appliance testing

Portable Appliance (PAT) Testing Northwich

Appliance testing splits about evenly between rented homes and small businesses, and the approach is the same for both: look at it properly before testing it. Every appliance gets a visual inspection first, because most faults are found by looking at the plug, the flex and the casing rather than by the tester.

Visual inspection on every itemDamaged flex, cracked casings, scorch marks at the pins and badly wired plugs.
Earth continuity and insulation resistanceThe electrical tests that prove a class I appliance is actually safe to use.
Priced per item, with no minimum call out gamesYou get a figure before we arrive, and an asset register after.
Labelled, logged and datedSo the next person to ask, an inspector or an insurer, can see it at a glance.

Send a rough list of what you have and we will give you a figure per item before we come out, not after.

Fault finding

Electrical Fault Finding Northwich

A breaker that trips once is a nuisance. One that trips every time it rains, or only when the shower runs, is telling you something specific.

We test rather than guessInsulation resistance and loop testing to find the circuit, then the point on it.
Live fault finding where it is safe toSome faults only show under load, so the board cannot simply be switched off.
Fixed the same visit wherever possibleWe carry the common parts, so a found fault is usually a repaired fault.
A written explanation of the causeNot just that it is fixed, but what caused it and whether it will come back.

The usual culprits around the area are the ones you would expect from the age of the housing: cable runs and joints disturbed by movement, cracked conduit, and older installations that have been re-levelled around at some point.

Inspection and testing

Electrical Inspections and Testing Northwich

An EICR is a condition report, not a pass or fail certificate. It tells you what is dangerous now, what will be dangerous soon, and what simply does not meet the current regulations. Everything found is coded C1, C2 or C3.

Every circuit tested, not a sampleContinuity, insulation resistance, polarity and earth fault loop impedance.
Codes explained in plain EnglishWhat has to be done, what should be done, and what can safely be left.
Remedials priced separatelyYou are free to take the report elsewhere. We would rather you trusted the coding.
Landlord copies sent within 24 hoursInside the 28 day window the regulations give you to hand it to a tenant.

Rented property needs one every five years or at change of tenancy, whichever comes first. Owner occupiers are not obliged, but ten years is the usual advice.

Credentials

Accredited Electricians Northwich

Accreditation is the part most people never check, and it is the part that decides whether your certificate is worth anything. Our electricians in the area work under a scheme that audits the work, not just the paperwork.

NAPIT approved contractor, member 66463

Assessed on real jobs, not a desk exercise. Our registration can be checked on the NAPIT register before you let anyone near your board.

Registered Competent Person

The scheme that lets us self certify notifiable work and register it with building control, so you are not chasing a separate certificate.

Part P registered

Domestic work is notified properly, which matters the day you sell the property and a solicitor asks for the paperwork.

Fully insured, with every job certified

Public liability in place on every visit, and an EICR or installation certificate issued at the end of it rather than weeks later.

Word of mouth is still where most of the work comes from, and that only happens if the job is done right and the price is what we said it would be.
